It was a great little show and was nice seeing a few MDS'ers getting away from their key boards. Thanks much to those that I fleeced, err I meant spent their hard earned cash one my wares.
Where were you/what were you selling?I had a good time. First time I've had a table at a show. Left with net positive cash which is a nice change.

I have a Remington 12 just like the one at the show. Has the Octagonal barrel.
I bought the Remington M552 speedmaster. They are nice and have one already. They will about eat any ammo you feed them. Also got the older but new looking J.C. Higgins M29 semi auto tube fed.
Especially nice seeing you again. Please say hi to Russian for me.It was great seeing you again after 20 years, and that you remembered our Russian friend. Saw Squaregrouper as I was heading out as well as whoever was manning the MSI booth. Nice to see you are still getting around well and sharp as ever, and feel kinda bad you are going to be where I was when we stopped meeting up.
I saw the 12s and the Winchester 61s at the end. One modern gun that tempted me was that Henry pump-action .22 for $450 and now I'm kicking myself for not getting it.
JC Higgins 29, 30, and 31 are more or less the same rifle, I have a 30 and really like the Midcentury vibe of the whole thing.
Aside from the deal on the Lyman #17A globe sight, picked up some 1911 magazines that could use some cleaning and half a box of USGI .45 ACP from the Mad Men era (1962).
Its not so much a gun show as a yard sale or flea market with only cool stuff. Was very glad I went.
Right in the middle. Had a TC Hawken 45 cal package for sale and a variety of other stuff.Where were you/what were you selling?
This swap meet/flea market type gun show is my favorite. Little to no retailers, just guys and gals getting rid of stuff they no longer need.Good show today, good to see and meet a few members. I introduced my daughter and son in law to their 1st show. They enjoyed the event and looking forward to more shows.
Actually, there were 3 retailers that I know of. But they didn't have signage. All good folks. All 3 have been at most of the shows in the last few years.This swap meet/flea market type gun show is my favorite. Little to no retailers, just guys and gals getting rid of stuff they no longer need.
Just before the long gun transfer law went into effect, @welder516 hosted a similar MDS event at his shop.
B-More Tactical, Saint Firearms and if the guy with a ton of ammo isn't a dealer he is committing tax fraud.Actually, there were 3 retailers that I know of. But they didn't have signage. All good folks. All 3 have been at most of the shows in the last few years.

You are welcome.Been looking for shot shell primers for a while now and nobody had them in stock. Went to the show and found a box of 1000 {Federal 209A) for $65. Went home happy.

Bob at Gun Shop in Essex is a Henry dealer. He has the 22 pumps in store. I have bought at least a few Henry rifles there.Are they members here? Still thinking of that Henry pump .22
